Memorial day

We went to the beach to see the kids. They are so adorable.



On the roof of one of the churches down at the shore were solar panels. All the houses down there should take advantage of the solar panels.


Coneflower


Phlox


Delphinium is super bushy now!


This lily is almost to my shoulder which doesn't say much for me.


Rose buds


I saw this big bunny and baby bunny sniffing around my veggies.


The zucchini plants have flowers now.


Edamame


Brussel sprouts have really sprouted overnight! No pun intended. kekeke


My potato vine has purple flowers.


The carrots that survived are doing well.


Peony

Garden drive by

I can't keep up with the amount of pictures I take. Here's a load off.

Our first harvest and meal

Day 12-13

We have watermelon! We have 6 plants total which should be enough to plant in the back garden area.


To my surprise, the garlic is sprouting. I thought it tooks weeks. Maybe it's because this garlic has been in my fridge for 2 months already. I'll have to plant more garlic now that I know it's so quick. Garlic will also keeps pests away from your other veggies.


I came home and found Mrs. Zucchini so big she was hanging over the container that I decided to move her to a new home. Mr. Zucchini didn't seem to mind.


A day later, she must have aclimated to her new home very well because she continued to grow. I was nervous she wouldn't like it because zucchini don't like root disturbance.


For scale, here she is next to my size 6.5 foot.


The rest of the family was doing well so I gave them all new homes right away too.


I began spacing the plants out and planning the areas of the garden for which plants will go where.


Since I spaced out the basil plants, they have been getting much larger each day.


My cosmos and marigolds.


My peony bud is getting larger. Ants were crawling all over it.

Day 10

Mrs. Zucchini seems to be in happier spirits yesterday. She's getting very large too. She's about 2 1/2" inches tip to tip now. I think it's about time I put her into the ground before she gets too large and traumatized when I move her.

Everything else is coming up as well.

My sugar snap peas and snow peas are getting very tall. This weekend, I will have to work on creating a trellis for them to climb towards the fence.

Look at my sign! Damn squirrels.

The girl's nextdoor were examining the crime scene. "Why did Mr. Squirrel eat your sign!?"

Then they took the sign home and said they would fix it for me with tape.

Other garden growth.
